鸡传染性喉气管炎病毒姻台株gB基因的序列测定及其结构功能分析

研究以鸡传染性喉气管炎病毒（ILTV）烟台株为模板，PCIK扩增出1条约2．7的gB基因片段，并将其克隆到pMD18-T载体中。序列测定显示，gB基因长2622bp，包含完的阅读框架。序列比较分析发现，烟台株和王岗株、河北株的班基因核苷酸序列与SA2株的比均在第89位上缺失1个碱基G，而在第102位核苷酸处插入1个碱基A，从而引起氨基酸序中第29-32位5个氨基酸的移码突变。烟台株还有另外7个碱基发生突变，使得其班基因与北株、王岗株、SA2疫苗株的gB基因核苷酸同源性分别为99．8％、99．7％和99．6％，氨基酸的同性分别为99．4％、99．4％、98．9％，表明不同ILTV毒株之间gB基因是非常保守的。划型相列河源

伪狂犬病病毒在NF-κB家族p65基因敲除细胞系的复制规律研究

试验旨在研究伪狂犬病病毒（PRV）在NF-κB家族p65基因敲除细胞系中的复制规律。利用慢病毒介导的CRISPR/Cas9基因定点修饰技术构建猪肺泡巨噬细胞（3D4/21）p65基因稳定敲除细胞系。通过构建p65-sgRNA重组质粒,转染至HEK293T/17细胞,收取慢病毒,感染3D4/21细胞后利用嘌呤霉素筛选获得多克隆细胞系,T7核酸酶检测敲除效率,再通过有限稀释法获得3D4/21-p65^-/-的稳定细胞系。CCK-8试剂盒检测3D4/21细胞中敲除p65基因后对细胞增殖的影响;流式细胞术检测PRV-GFP感染3D4/21及3D4/21-p65^-/-细胞后病毒增殖的差异;实时定量PCR检测PRV感染3D4/21及3D4/21-p65^-/-细胞后PRV gB、TK基因mRNA表达水平及PRV感染细胞诱导的IL-1β和IL-6基因mRNA水平表达的变化;Western blotting检测PRV-QXX感染3D4/21及3D4/21-p65^-/-细胞后PRV gB、gE蛋白的表达;滴度测定检测PRV-QXX感染3D4/21及3D4/21-p65^-/-细胞后子代病毒滴度。结果表明,sgRNA2和sgRNA3的基因编辑效率较高,对其进行克隆化培养进而获得敲除p65基因的稳定表达细胞系;CCK-8试剂盒检测细胞活力表明,p65基因敲除对细胞活力无影响;流式细胞仪检测表明,同一时间点PRV-GFP在3D4/21-p65^-/-中的增殖显著高于对照细胞;实时荧光定量PCR表明在3D4/21细胞中敲除p65基因促进了PRV gB、TK基因的mRNA表达水平,而抑制了IL-1β、IL-6基因的mRNA表达;Western blotting结果表明,在3D4/21细胞中敲除p65基因促进了PRV gB、gE蛋白的表达;滴度测定结果表明,同一时间点PRV-QXX在3D4/21-p65^-/-细胞中子代病毒的复制显著高于对照细胞。以上结果均表明,p65基因敲除可促进PRV在3D4/21细胞中复制。     

Serum cobalamin concentrations in healthy cats and cats with non-alimentary tract illness in Australia

Objective   To determine a reference range for serum cobalamin concentration in healthy cats in Australia using a chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay and to prospectively investigate the prevalence of hypocobalaminaemia in cats with non-alimentary tract disease.
Design   Prospective study measuring serum cobalamin concentrations in clinically healthy cats and cats with non-alimentary tract illness.
Procedure   Blood was collected from 50 clinically healthy cats that were owned by staff and associates of Veterinary Specialist Services or were owned animals presented to Creek Road Cat Clinic for routine vaccination. Blood was collected from 47 cats with non-alimentary tract illness presented at either clinic. Serum cobalamin concentration was determined for each group using a chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay.
Results   A reference range for Australian cats calculated using the central 95th percentile in the 50 clinically healthy cats was 345 to 3668 pg/mL. Median serum cobalamin concentration in 47 cats with non-alimentary tract illness (1186 pg/mL; range 117–3480) was not significantly different to the median serum cobalamin of the 50 healthy cats (1213 pg/mL, range 311–3688). Using the calculated reference range one sick cat with non-alimentary tract illness had a markedly low serum cobalamin concentration.
Conclusion   Although hypocobalaminaemia is uncommon in sick cats with non-alimentary tract illness in Australia, its occurrence in this study warrants further investigation.

为探明2014年-2015年在福建省流行的羊传染性脓疱病毒(ORFV)遗传变异情况,对10株ORFV流行毒株的F1L、B2L和VIR基因进行克隆、测序及分析。结果表明,10株ORFV F1L基因之间的核苷酸序列同源性为97.6%~100%,与国内株的核苷酸序列同源性为96.8%~99.7%,与NZ2参考株的核苷酸序列同源性为96.3%~97.1%;同NZ2参考株比较,FJ-YT2014缺失2个氨基酸;10株ORFV B2L基因之间核苷酸序列同源性为97.5%~99.9%,与国内株的核苷酸序列同源性为96.7%~99.5%,与NZ2参考株的核苷酸序列同源性为96.7%~97.7%;10株ORFV VIR基因之间的核苷酸序列同源性为95.8%~99.5%,与国内株的核苷酸序列同源性为94.6%~99.6%,与NZ2参考株的核苷酸序列同源性为94.6%~96.4%。基于基因核苷酸序列的遗传进化分析表明,10株ORFV F1L基因与福建省分离株、山西株和新疆株亲缘关系较近;10株ORFV B2L基因与新疆、山西、德国毒株亲缘关系较近;10株ORFV VIR基因与台湾、新疆株亲缘关系较近。结果提示,当前福建省流行的ORFV F1L、B2L和VIR基因尚未出现明显变异,但是其F1L、B2L和VIR基因核苷酸序列之间普遍存在异质性。     

Productivity of different cow genetic groups in dual-purpose cattle production systems in south-eastern Mexico

The objective was to evaluate the effect of cow genetic group, nutritional level and their interaction on some economically important traits of dual-purpose herds managed under field conditions. Nine herds were monitored during a production cycle in Yucatan, Mexico. Herds were grouped into four nutritional levels (NL) based on the metabolizable energy (ME) apparently available on pasture, nutritional management, and milk production. Cows were classified into three genetic groups (GG): low (≤25%), middle (25–75%) and high (≥75%) graded for Bos taurus inheritance. Total milk sold (TMS), days in milk (DIM), TMS adjusted to DIM within each NL (TMSA), body condition score (BCS) at calving, changes of BCS during lactation (CBCS), calf weaning weight (WW), age at weaning (AW), kg of calf weaned per cow (KWC) and calf mortality were studied. The statistical model included the fixed effects of NL, GG, month of calving (MC), parity number (PN) and BCS at calving and GG × NL interaction. The effects of NL, GG, MC, PN and GG × NL were significant (p < 0.05) for TMS, KWC. As expected, TMS increased with NL from 562.4 ± 106 kg for NL1 to 2366.3 ± 100.1 kg for NL4. KWC was greatest for NL2 (138.6 kg) followed by NL1 (135 kg); the lowest KWC corresponded to NL4 (96.0 kg) (p < 0.05). TMS values for the middle (1727 ± 94.7 kg) and the high graded GG (1603.5 ± 83.5 kg) were twice those for the low graded GG cows (828.5 ± 95 kg) (p < 0.05). KWC was also higher for the middle graded group (152.8 kg) than for the low or (104 kg) or the high graded GG (118 kg) (p < 0.05). With better nutrition cows of all GG improved their milk performance but not the calf traits. CBCS was negative for all GG. The highest BCS lost was for cows in NL1 and NL2 and for cows in the high graded GG (p < 0.05).     

猪肺炎支原体与猪支气管败血波氏杆菌在猪体液免疫和生长性能上的协同作用

试验选用10日龄成华×大约克杂交猪36头,随机分成四组(1、2、3、4),每组9头.其中1、2组用猪肺炎支原体全菌抗原免疫后再分别用猪肺炎支原体和猪支气管败血波氏杆菌进行攻毒,3、4组注射生理盐水作为对照,并与前两组同时分别用猪肺炎支原体和猪支气管败血波氏杆菌进行攻毒.采用间接ELISA、组织切片等方法对猪血清中的抗体水平、肺脏的病理变化及生长性能进行测定.试验表明:用猪肺炎支原体全菌抗原接种猪后,在血清中能检测到较高的抗体水平(25).猪肺炎支原体攻毒后2周,免疫猪和对照猪血清中猪肺炎支原体抗体的滴度分别为23.8与22.4(P＜0.05),且免疫猪的生长性能比对照猪好.在猪支气管败血波氏杆菌攻毒组,攻毒2周和4周后免疫猪血清中的猪支气管败血波氏杆菌抗体水平与对照猪相比分别提高了26.67%和30.00%(P＞0.05),6周后免疫猪和对照猪血清中的猪支气管败血波氏杆菌抗体分别为21.7和20.3(P＜0.05),且在攻毒后4～6周,免疫猪的生长性能有了显著的改善.组织切片显示,无论是用猪肺炎支原体攻毒还是用猪支气管败血波氏杆菌攻毒,免疫猪的肺脏病变程度都较对照猪轻.
